I tried these four Oh Polly dresses for Valentines Day and fell in love with one in particular
I had a date night coming up for Valentines Day and there wasn't one person I didn't ask... "what dress should I wear?"
Oh Polly are known for their silhouette hugging dresses and beautiful styles, so I had to give a handful of their dresses a try.
Every dress in my Oh Polly parcel, which they so kindly sent for me to review, was so different that I had no idea which would suit me best.
Trying different dress styles, fabrics and colours has really made me realise I need to be a little more adventurous with my clothing again- and you will see why.
The Aphrodite collection particularly has some gorgeous items which could take any of us into date night in a flash- here's my thoughts on the four dresses from two of their Valentines worthy collections.
Here I tried the Cocktails at Eight pleated hemline corset mini dress
£48.00
This one is described online as 'fun, flirty and flattering'- and that's how it felt. Depending on what type of date night you are going for, I feel like this is a go to dress to party the night away in! For me on the other hand, I was going to a fancy restaurant so it didn't really fit the bill. But it's everything an LBD (little black dress) should be- nicely fitted and silky material BUT still supportive on the bust with slinky straps.
Rating: 5/5
From the Aphrodite Collection, I then tried the Oraya Long Sleeve Ruffle Detail Mini Dress
£52.00
I was SO surprised by this dress!
This for me was one of those dresses that completely transformed once I tried it on.
I have only just recently felt slender enough to wear a bodycon dress- so beforehand this style for me would have been my worst nightmare.
But wow I was sold- gorgeous ruched material, plenty of room (I didn't feel like it was sprayed on)
